Landis made three music parts of this film, which are - in fact - music videos of B.B. King's songs: "Lucille", "Into the Night" (specially composed by Ira Newborn for movie Into the Night ) and also for the song "In the Midnight Hour". Videos for "Lucille" and "In the Midnight Hour" are similar and shows B.B. King and his Band (Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Pfeiffer, Dan Aykroyd, Eddie Murphy and Steve Martin) during their performance in one of the 80's night's clubs. Video made for "Into the Night" took place in television studio and shows B.B. King with Jeff Goldblum. Jeff Okun directed the rest of this film (including editing archival King's footage and interviews with Landis and King). The movie was made to promotion Into the Night movie and as a tribute to B.B. King's life and art.

Un film de concert tiré de deux concerts des Rolling Stones lors de leur tournée nord-américaine de 1972. En 1972, les Stones amènent leur tournée Exile on Main Street au Texas : 15 chansons, dont cinq de l'album "Exile". Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Mick Taylor, Charlie Watts et Bill Wyman sur une petite scène avec trois autres musiciens. Jusqu'à ce que les lumières s'allument vers la fin, nous voyons les pierres sur un fond noir. La caméra reste principalement sur Jagger, avec quelques plans de Taylor. Richards est à l'écran pour ses duos et pour un travail de guitare sur les deux dernières chansons. C'est de la musique du début à la fin : du hard rock ("All Down the Line"), du blues ("Love in Vain" et "Midnight Rambler"), un hommage à Chuck Berry ("Bye Bye Johnny"), et pas de "Satisfaction .

Ce documentaire de la tournée américaine des Rolling Stones en1969, est devenu un symbole poignant de la disparition de l'époque "Peace and Love". Après une tournée couronnée de succès au travers des Etats-Unis, les Rolling Stones effectuent en décembre un concert gratuit à Altamont Speedway en Californie. Le groupe à choisi imprudemment les Hells Angels pour assurer la sécurité. Les motards ont recours à la violence pour maintenir en ordre une foule agitée, stone, et souvent nue. Le résultat: des dizaines de blessés et la mort à l'écran d'un jeune homme noir (pendant "Sympathy for the Devil") par un membre de la sécurité. De façon arrangée, mais efficace, les frères Maysles filment Mick Jagger dans la salle de montage regardant l'assassinat projeté pour la première fois. Le film fonctionne aussi comme un documentaire du rock-and-roll, capturant la bande pendant leur moments les plus détendus, enivrant, et électrisant.
